Youth academy changes expected

Last updated : 29 April 2005 By Alistair Murray
Academy manager Peter Suddaby, along with recruitment manager John Moncur and Under-18 coaches Pat Holland and Jimmy Neighbour could lose their jobs as Frank Arnesen intends making swift changes at the top.

Suddaby will definately go to make room for McDermott in a newly created role according to reports this morning.

The new Academy director began his coaching career as assistant to Tottenham Trust president Steve Perryman while at Watford. He has also held down positions working within the FA.

Arnesen's changes will constitute the first step towards change in the remit devoted to youth agreed in his contract nearly 12 months ago.
